There's a certain vibe driven by the acoustic guitar. Bowie's music may remind you of Jack Johnson with the acoustic guitar, but without the heavy backbeat. They say the truth will set you free. This is Veracity - Rhythm-Folk, organic music that breathes with the life of the experiences behind the songs. Unlike so much pop music that's built on a static beat, this music has an undercurrent of rhythmic movement. Bowie is a songwriter who plays acoustic guitar and sings with a rich, expressive, blues inflected bass voice. In addition to Bowie there's electric bass and congas/percussion. That's it. No big productions, no orchestration, just the songs, the reflections of life, the freedom of veracity.
